The Feast of Belshazzar is a historical fiction novel written by Edwin Arnold. The book is set in ancient Babylon during the reign of King Belshazzar. The story revolves around the king's extravagant feast, which is interrupted by a mysterious hand that writes a message on the wall. The king is terrified and calls upon his wise men to interpret the message, but they are unable to do so. The queen then suggests that they seek the help of the Jewish prophet Daniel, who is known for his ability to interpret dreams and visions. Daniel is brought before the king and interprets the message, which warns of the king's impending downfall. The novel explores themes of power, pride, and the consequences of one's actions. It provides a vivid portrayal of ancient Babylonian culture and customs, as well as the political and social tensions of the time. The Feast of Belshazzar is a gripping and thought-provoking read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and biblical stories.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Poems, by Edwin Arnold.
